Face value = 1000

Coopen rate = 6.9%

Yeild rate =6.35%

Maturity = 23 years

Annual coopon amount= 1000*6.9/100 =69

Current bond price = present value of coupon payments + present value of redumption amount

1) present value of coupon payments

= 69*pvaf (6.35%,23 years)

=69*11.926 = 822.894

2) Present value of redumption amount

=1000*pvif (6.35%, 23 years)

= 1000*0.2427= 242.7

Price of bond = 822.894+242.7= 1065.59
